Hugo Calderano wins WTT Contender Doha 2023

After lifting the championship trophy at WTT Contender Durban 2023, Brazilian superstar once again lived up to expectations as top seed in Doha. Hugo Calderano of Brazil defeated Jang Woojin of South Korea in the men’s singles final match at WTT contender Doha 2023 in Doha, Qatar, Jan 21, 2023. He defeated the fifth seed Jang Woojin with three of the five games being decided by the narrowest of margins (12-10, 11-13, 11-3, 14-12, 11-7) on the final day of play at WTT Contender Doha 2023.

To win two WTT Contender titles in a row was a big challenge for me, both mentally and physically, to play at this high level for two weeks, so I’m very proud to be able to achieve this. I’ve been working a lot on my physicality and I think my body held up well. Next up I’m going to Singapore Smash, a very important event, so I hope to prepare well and get a good result there.
